What is Dyscalculia?

Developmental Dyscalculia (DD) is a specific learning disorder that is characterised by impairments in learning basic number facts, processing number size and performing accurate and fluent calculations.

Children with Dyscalculia lack an intuitive grasp of numbers. Dyscalculia often occurs with other specific learning disorders such as Dyslexia and Dyspraxia.

It is estimated that between 5% and 10% of children have some degree of Dyscalculia.

“Our son has found school challenging, especially with regards to Maths. He lacks confidence and has developed a negative attitude towards the subject. It had got to the point where he didn’t want to go into school. Your patient, nurturing manner and targeted, individualised support has helped him to believe in himself again and he is now much more willing to try. Thank you for all that you have done to enable him to achieve success.”
